  1. Great invitation into the scene for the viewer as he follows the 4 boats along their zig zagging path into the distance. Don't know if you intended that but it works beautifully Victor. Well done and fantastic earthy color palette too!

  5. The water seems to be moving Victor! That's quite an achievement. I photograph boats all the time intending to make a painting and never do. You did a brilliant job with the mechanical details of the subject, the details that keep me from this genre.

  6. Hi Linda.
    I`m glad you like it. Thank you for your nice comment. You are a fine draughftsman so the machanics wouldn`t be a problem for you Linda, have a go. I would love to see you do a Seascape or a Landscape. Your wooded landscapes are brilliant. All the best my friend.

  15. That's a great painting Vic! Amazing composition and great sense of light. Each boat invites you to the next one and it gives a sense of depth. Nice one!

  16. Hi valerie.
    I`m glad that you like it. Thank you for your nice comment. I am waiting for a couple of deliveries to turn up today, so I won`t be able to go down to my studio to Paint, so I shale do some Watercolours in our Kitchen. Loved your last painting. All the best Valerie.
